A Day of totally un-fun expenses and general annoyances

Today will be the day that I write an entry about things that have solely peeved me out today, including personal attacks by a professor and an angry computer virus.

January 16th dawned sunny in Massachusetts, a day warm relative to the past week I spent race training at Sunday River in Maine. I luxuriately slept until 9 (much better than the 7 AM wakeup call of the past 7 days), upon which time I rose from my slumber. I meandered about the house for a bit, washing my ski stuff and having a little breakfast, watching CNN, and other things. It was all downhill from here.

I turned on my computer (I write now from my sister's laptop) only to find a garish green screen and a SPYWARE notification. Sweet, I thought, haven't used the damn thing in a week and this is what I get. So I take a little roadtrip over to the Geek Squad, those saints, and after a cool $200 bucks, they mercifully tell me my computer will be fixed in 2-3 days.

After this, I took my car to get the oil changed, where the mechanics tell me a few belts or sensors or some crap needs to be replaced. Like I can afford it. I told them I would talk to my dad, but of course I won't.

Upon arriving home, I check my school email, where I find that I have been reamed out by a big headed professor for not registering for the right class. Why is it that some professors are always on a power trip? There was a misunderstanding, but that does not need to escalate into making the student feel stupid.

If it's not something, it's something else.

in order to take my mind off of everything from the state that the country of Haiti is in right now to my own petty complaints, I have decided to watch this probably 5 times:

You probably won't regret watching this either.
